AMONG THE POOR.
The Police Report That There Is Muci
Suffering.

suffering.
Inquiry in police circles show that
there is considerable suffering among
the poorer classes, but not any more
than is usually the case in severe
weather. 1t would be we'll If it was
generally known that the police have a
charity fund of SO 900, which is literally
distributed to applicants when they
deserve it. This police charity is one Of
the most thorough and well conducted
institutions of the kind. Each Lieu
tenant is instructed to relieve every
authenticated case of suffering.
The police know everybody on their
beats and they know tho condition of
people and whether they need assist
ance. If application for aid is made to
the general headquarters, the person
making the request is referred to the
lieutenant of the precinct in which he
lives. If officers Of the force in their
rounds discover meritorious cases of this
kind they arc relieved with dispatch, as
all other cases are when brought to the
attention Of the Police Department.
